    Can't enter password after Windows 10 Update


    My computer just updated but suprisingly i couldn't log in. The keyboard works just fine, I know that because number keys are typing just fine, but not letters.After so many attempts trying to log in i finally got the CHALLENGE PHRASE appeared and again am able to type in both letters and numbers which eliminates the thought of a faulty keyboard.I tried to uninstall the new updates by logging in using Safe Mode unfortunately I dont have an Admin account created on my PC and even if I have one I still can't enter my password to authorise the action.So Why is the Password field only responding

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
